Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro Brake Pad Wear Sensor Kit in US

A brake pad wear sensor kit for the Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro does one critical thing that a pad change alone cannot: it ensures the brake warning light on your Amg Gt R Pro dashboard accurately reflects the condition of the next set of brake pads. Without a new sensor on the Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro, the warning system is non-functional from day one of the new pads, there is no advance notice for the next replacement cycle on your Amg Gt R Pro. On Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro vehicles where a previous service skipped the sensor, the brake warning light may also remain on permanently after new pads are installed on the Amg Gt R Pro.

What Is Included in the Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro Brake Pad Wear Sensor Kit

The kit for your Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro includes the brake pad wear sensor probe unit manufactured to OEM contact resistance and threshold depth for the Amg Gt R Pro monitoring circuit, the wiring connector mating with the Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro brake monitoring harness where required, the retaining clip or mounting bracket securing the sensor to the Amg Gt R Pro brake pad or caliper correctly, and in pad-inclusive kits, the brake pads for the Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro with sensor pre-assembled at factory-correct position on the Amg Gt R Pro pad.

Why the Sensor Probe Specification Matters on the Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro

A brake pad wear sensor on the Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro is a calibrated component manufactured to trigger the Amg Gt R Pro brake warning circuit at a specific remaining pad thickness. Too long and it triggers early on your Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro, sending drivers for an unnecessary brake service with significant Amg Gt R Pro pad life remaining. Too short and it triggers late or not at all on the Amg Gt R Pro, leaving the driver with no advance warning as the Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro pads approach the metal backing plate.

Signs the Wear Sensor Kit on Your Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro Is Due

• Brake pad warning light illuminated on your Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro dashboard
• Amg Gt R Pro warning light that stays on after a recent pad change, indicating sensor was not replaced on the Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro
• Brake pads on your Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro at or approaching minimum thickness on inspection
• Worn sensor probe visible on the Amg Gt R Pro brake pad during a brake service inspection

Why GeoBrakes for the Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro Wear Sensor Kit

Wear sensor compatibility for the Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro is more exacting than most brake components. Probe length, contact resistance specification, and connector pinout must all match the Amg Gt R Pro brake monitoring circuit exactly. A wrong-spec sensor on your Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro either triggers warnings at the wrong pad thickness or fails to connect to the existing Amg Gt R Pro harness. Every kit in the GeoBrakes catalogue is sourced to OEM specification for the Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro exact year and model, with front and rear positions listed separately.

Frequently Asked Questions - Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro Brake Pad Wear Sensor Kits

How do I know if my Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro has electronic brake pad wear sensors?

Check your Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro owner's manual for a brake pad warning light in the instrument cluster section. Use the GeoBrakes vehicle selector to confirm whether your Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro application requires an electronic sensor kit.

Can I buy the wear sensor separately from the brake pads for my Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro?

Yes. GeoBrakes carries sensors as standalone components and as part of sensor kits for the Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro. If replacing Amg Gt R Pro pads that did not include a sensor and the existing sensor has already triggered, a standalone sensor or sensor kit is the correct purchase for your Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro.

Will the brake warning light turn off automatically after installing a new sensor on my Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro?

On most Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro vehicles, the brake pad warning light turns off once the new sensor is correctly installed and the ignition is cycled. On some Mercedes Benz Amg Gt R Pro European platforms, a diagnostic scan tool reset may be required. Check your Amg Gt R Pro service documentation if the light does not clear after installation.
